DEATH CLAIMS PIONEER LADY

Mrs. A. D. Bundy Lived Here Many Years.

Mrs. A. D. Bundy, a resident of this county for more than sixty years, died last Wednesday at her home on Pleasant Street. Her late husband, Dr. A. D. Bundy, was a practing physician in St. Ansgar and Osage for many years.

Funeral Services were held Friday afternoon, the Rev. R. B. Frye of the Methodist church being in charge. Interment was in the St. Ansgar cemetery.

Mary Kingsley Bundy, daughter of Rev. Franklin and Mary Herrick Kingsley, was born Aug. 9, 1844, in Laurens, Oswego county, N.Y. and died on Nov. 14, 1928, aged 84 years, 2 months and 5 days. Mrs. Bundy's ancestry on her mother's side goes back to King Eric of Sweden, of which line Ambassador Myron T. Herrick of France is also a descendent. On her father's side back to England to the Kingsley's made famous by the Rev. Charles Kingsley, to whom the Rev. Franklin Kinglsey, Mrs. Bundy's father bore a very close resemblance.

Mrs. Bundy came when but a small girl, with her parents to Beaver Dam, Wis., where her father was minister of the Christian church, afterward moving to Rio, Wisconsin, where Mrs. Bundy met Azro D. Bundy, to whom she was married Dec. 25, 1863.

Previous to their marriage Mr. Bundy had served two years with the union forces in the civil war, being sent home because of wounds. After their marriage he enlisted again with a medical unit and served in a hospital until the close of the war.

To Mr. and Mrs. Bundy were born four girls and four boys -- three sons, Frank, Jay and Byron, and one daughter, Ida, and the father, Dr. Bundy, preceding Mrs. Bundy in death. There remains to mourn their loss three daughters, Mrs. Kennedy Scott and Cora Bundy of Osage; Mrs. May B. Emnondson of Portland, Oregon, and one son Irving Bundy of St. Joseph, Missouri. One brother, Fayette Kingsley, who resides near Chicago, and one sister, Lucy Kingsley of Battle Creek, Michigan, with grandchildren and great grandchildren and a large number of friends and neighbors, who will miss her quiet, kindly presence.

Mrs Bundy had been a member of the Christian church since childhood. In all her ways she was quiet, unostentatious and loyal to her family and friends. With patience she bore her lot as a shut-in for several months and died after a lingering illness of four months.
